Besides the obvious fact that US consumers would be the ones paying this and not the UK government....

The digital services tax went unchanged under the trade deal agreed by the US and UK in May 2025, despite it being a point of discussion.

However, in an interview with Sky's Mark Stone earlier this month, the US president suggested the terms of the agreement "can always be changed".

The last agreement is less than a year old, and trump is already throwing it out

What's the point in negotiating with someone who's randomly going to rip it up and start over?

Any time spent dealing with trump instead of any other country is just wasted time. Especially since Americans are broke as fuck and can't buy shit, pretty soon other countries won't even acknowledge trump's tariffs.
